Water pipe breaks, tap water needs to be boiled
By Gaveliers, The Gavel Media Team, on May 1, 2010 5:48 PMDue to a water pipe break in Weston, Mass., the faucet water at Boston College is unsafe to drink without boiling for one minute, according to an email from the Office of the Dean of Student Development. It is, however, suitable for bathing, flushing, and fire protection, says the email. They are filtering the water at the Chestnut Hill Reservoir for use.
Update: Massachusetts has declared a state of emergency.
Update: Gov. Deval Patrick says that if workers can patch the leak successfully, this will be resolved in days.
